    Analyzing a Circuit with Phasors: Determining Inductance and Resistance

    HA YES I DID IT. HAHAHAHAHA :rofl: I assumed E was the combined voltage sources and got -37.19 + 8i as the complex form R + jwL = I/E R +10iL = 96.2 + 66.38i I had two variables and one equation, but I saw that there was real and nonreal numbers. So.. i terms -> 10iL = 66.38i L = 6.638...

    Analyzing a Circuit with Phasors: Determining Inductance and Resistance

    I'm not sure what "E" is meant to be, but I can meet you halfway I think :biggrin: I = E /(R + jwL) .3255cos(10t+133.3°) = E / [R + j(10)(L)] -.223 + .237j = E / (R + 10jL) If I were to take a guess at what 'E' is, it's the combination of the voltage sources, correct? E = -7∠208° + 33∠-20° ?

    Analyzing a Circuit with Phasors: Determining Inductance and Resistance

    Hmm.. Okay this took me a hell of a long time to calculate between those two equations. Was I supposed to use the equation in my first post and the equation found doing the KVL across L,R, and the two voltages to find R and L? If so, I got these monstrous values (10^16) that have complex...

    Analyzing a Circuit with Phasors: Determining Inductance and Resistance

    Are you telling me that the capacitor and 22Ω resistor might as well be non existent when solving for the voltage across R and L? If so.. Does that mean I can do KVL while taking only R, L, and the 2 voltage sources into consideration? Giving me my 2nd equation?

    Analyzing a Circuit with Phasors: Determining Inductance and Resistance

    Homework Statement When the circuit shown in the figure is at steady state, the mesh current is i(t) = 0.3255 cos(10t + 133.3°) A Determine the values of L and R. Zc is the impedance of the Capacitor ZL is the impedance of the Inductor I1 is the current in the top loop I2 is the current in...

    Solving Equivalent Circuit for Thevenin Resistance & Current

    KCL on the top node: 0 = (Leaving currents) - (Entering Currents) 0 = (Current across Req) + (Current Source) - (Current through voltage source) Current through voltage source = Isc 0= 1.237A + 9A - Isc Isc = 10.237 A The website won't tell me if this is correct (I used all my...

    Solving Equivalent Circuit for Thevenin Resistance & Current

    Ahh. Thank you for taking the time to draw that out. Sorry, I'm getting a little confused from the different terminology. It sounds like you're asking what the voltage across the short circuit is. I'm not sure I know how to answer that. I'll take guesses though. I'm supposing that the...

    Centroid of non-right triangle

    What he said. A right triangle is basically like half of a square, cut down in a diagonal. The area of a square is b*h (or side^2). So a right triangle's area should be bh/2. In the case of non-right triangles, this still holds true. Cut a parallelogram diagonally and you get two triangles...

    Solving Equivalent Circuit for Thevenin Resistance & Current

    Does it short out the 65 Ω resistor? If it does, I had no idea, because I thought for it to short out a parallel resistor, the short circuit has to be parallel ONLY to that resistor. As for the potential across Req.. I guess I can use voltage division? Veq= [8.889Ω/(8.889Ω+65Ω)]11v, which...

    Electrostatics: Using a conducting string suspension.

    Homework Statement This is a lab question. Basically what the lab entails is we have two spheres. One is suspended from a string and another is attached to a non-conducting rod. We inductively charge the sphere attached to the rod. Then we bring it close to the other sphere that is being...
